Kenya is the first case where the ICJ delimited the boundary line of the continental shelf beyond 200 nautical miles (the so-called “extended continental shelf”) between the Parties. Compared with the previous cases decided by other international tribunals on the same issue, the present case shows some differences. Particularly, the ICJ did not mention the three-stage methodology or other delimitation methods in the delimitation of the extended continental shelf, nor did it identify the relevant area or apply the disproportionality test. The ICJ in this case did not have any reliable evidence to ascertain the Parties’ entitlements to the extended continental shelf, and it did not make a clear determination on the issue of entitlements accordingly. The ICJ delimited the extended continental shelf by extending the boundary line within 200 nautical miles in the same direction, but its reasoning is not sufficient to support the decision. Besides, the Court did not pronounce that the delimitation line achieves an equitable solution. Indeed, in light of the relationship between entitlement and delimitation as well as the circumstances of the present case, the ICJ should have declined to delimit the extended continental shelf.","PeriodicalId":45438,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Journal of International Law","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41381923","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Indeed, the LOSC reflects a particular historical trajectory from Grotius’s Mare Liberum to UNCLOS III and the historical circumstances under which it developed. Using TWAIL as a theoretical and methodological lens, this article critically analyzes the historical development of the law of the sea from Third World States’ standpoint. The article demonstrates that the rules and principles of the traditional law of the sea were conceptualized by and designed to promote the colonial and other interests of the powerful and technologically advanced Western States. Nonetheless, Third World States consistently challenged the old legal order of the sea and played significant roles in the evolution of existing doctrines and the development of new spatial architecture of the oceans and the associated principles. The article concludes that, despite such efforts of Third World States to reorient the law of the sea in a manner to address their interests, the protections that current international law offers to Third World States remain fragile in many areas, which areas continue to be subjects of the ongoing Third World struggle.","PeriodicalId":45438,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Journal of International Law","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43526884","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Section A of this essay introduces the work in a summary fashion. Section B briefly describes the context for each epoch. Section C highlights the challenges and controversies in each epoch surrounding the related topics studied by the Institute. Section D analyzes the three resultant resolutions. Section E briefly comments on the impact of the work, and Section F concludes by taking a look into the future. By and large, the work of the Institute relating to acquisition or status of territory stays very close to the leitmotifs or practices of the different epochs, although one can glean glimpses of inching forward on the part of the Institute, or more so of certain members. Notable examples are its assessment that notice of occupation is required to make it effective and may be done in the normal way of giving publicity to official acts or through the diplomatic channel, and its view on the international mandates system that, “The communities under mandate are subjects of international law. They have a patrimony distinct from that of the mandatory State; they possess a national status, and they may acquire rights or be held to their obligations.” The Institute’s work can be considered solid “codification” efforts. As such, the work, just like any other private codification efforts, may conceivably contribute to the strengthening of the relevant practice, for good or ill, or for good and ill, as we can see that such practice in the past, together with the codification that aspired to reflect it, can never catch up with the future.","PeriodicalId":45438,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Journal of International Law","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48116177","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As a result, investor-State arbitration is facing greater criticism than ever before because of its potential to contradict international environmental agreements and international human rights agreements. Concerns about State sovereignty are on the rise; particularly the perception that investment tribunals have failed to strike a proper balance between investors’ economic interests and general interests of host States to further their environmental policies and interests. Against this background, this Article investigates the methodological justification for the application of proportionality analysis while discussing potential channels in investment law to crystallize such application which would have deep practical ramifications for the global energy market. At a more conceptual level, this Article proposes an alternative viewpoint in understanding constitutionalization of international investment law and argues proportionality is indispensable discourse in investor-State arbitration.","PeriodicalId":45438,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Journal of International Law","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47780470","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The adaptation of international law in the Chinese Constitution and legal system determines China’s engagement and participation in the international law regime and indicates the country’s treaty performance. This paper provides an overview of the position and status of international law, including both treaties and customary international law, in China’s current 1982 Constitution and domestic legal system. It also analyzes current practice of international law in China’s judicial practice. By reference to recent developments in the PRC Constitution and domestic laws, especially the 2018 Constitutional Amendment, this article attempts to provide a contextual analysis on the standing of international law in the Chinese Constitution and legal system, in the hope that the understanding of the interplay between international law and the Chinese constitutional and legal system will help scholars and policymakers to pursue opportunities for cultural communication and reconciliation to seek normative consensus in the formation of international law.","PeriodicalId":45438,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Journal of International Law","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45391413","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
